I have to acknowledge the support and patience from my wife and her continued support in allowing me the time to research and write this book. It would not have been possible to make this effort a success without her support. I would also like to extend an acknowledgement to people who are my peers and helped me immensely in reviewing the book and giving me valuable feedback regarding content and writing style. My heartfelt gratitude and thanks go to Alex Fiteni, Ajay Pradhan, Brian R. Bouchard, Faun deHenry, John Peters, Ketan J Thanki, Scott Gordon, and Thomas Simkiss.

I would also like to thank the many others that I have reached out to ask specific questions related to content in some of the chapters where their expertise was far higher than mine.
